Design and Fabrication of a Quad-Band Bandpass Filter Using Multi-Layered Sir Structure

Abstract: Abstract-In this paper, design and fabrication of a quadband microstrip bandpass filter (BPF) using multi-layered stepped impedance resonators (SIRs) structure is proposed. One pair of SIR on the top layer is designed to operate at the 1st and 3rd passbands (1.56/3.57 GHz), and the other pair is at 2nd and 4th passbands (2.42/5.23 GHz) by tuning the impedance and length ratios of the SIRs. In order to find the desired coupling location between the SIRs located on different layers and the input/output (I/O) lin… Show more

“…It is composed of two bi-section λ/2 SIRs and two full λ SIRs. To proceed smoothly, the two outer resonators are annotated as SIRs A and D while the two inner resonators are annotated as SIRs B and C. The resonant frequencies of utilized SIRs associated with two operation modes can be engineered in accordance with [16,17]. The filter is symmetric with respect to the central dashed line.…”

“…However, this method not only increased the device volume but also required additional matching circuits and feed structure. The third method is based on multi-layered structure, which reduces the circuit size effectively, while suffers from the design complexity and causes a complex integration in packaging [15]. The last method is based on single quad-mode resonator [16].…”

“…Quad-band bandpass filters have thrived in recent years [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. In [6], a quad-band BPF is achieved based on splitting two passbands of a dual-band BPF by transmission zeros (TZs).…”

“…This method is not applicable when there is a great distance between pass bands. In [7,8], quad-band BPFs are proposed using multi-layered structures composed of microstrip and defected ground structure resonators. Two sets of dual-mode resonators are applied to realize a quad-band BPF in [9].…”
